Llife In Unique Metu

                                                           LİFE İN UNİQUE METU
       Being a Metu student is evaluated from several aspects. Firstly, we have several advantages as Metu students. To begin with, Metu is one of the best universities in the world. So, I think, we have many education opportunities as  metu students.I believe, I can develop myself with the best teachers, campus activities and group workings. Thus, I can prepare myself to future properly. Moreover, I have found chance which I could not find in high school, to be a social person. Thought groups, theatres, concerts and conversations with famous people help us learn new things and we participate in these activities with friends. What is more, we have Devrim Stadium where we meet with our friends and conversate with each other and we can do sport activities like walking. In addıtıon to these services of Metu, health and shopping services are certainly perfect. We can go to there easily when I have a health problem. We have shopping centers to buy both book and our other needs.
       Secondly, we have also difficulties in Metu. To begin with, Metu has an education system which continues tensely. In my opinion, quizes, homeworks, lessons, exams and class activities are very tense. Sometimes I have problems to do these on time. Although these are very useful for us, we get stressed in this condition sometimes. Furthermore, the most important problem is transportation for me. We have transportation problem when we have lessons which finish at 17:30. Specially, this situation affects us in winter negatively.
       Thirdly, Metu has a cosmopolitan environment. This situation provides opportunity to be friend with foreign people. We have friends who have different countries, nations, language and culture. So we can learn about different culture and traditions. Moreover, this situation develops peace, freedom and tolerance. In addition to this condition, we have  many friends from different parts of Turkey. Thus, we can have many different friends. Consequently, Metu presents us a beautiful environment for our communication with people.
        Finally, I am very happy to come to Metu. I believe that I have gained several things since I came to Metu. Metu has provided me many chance to develop myself. Although I primarily had adaptation problem last year, I got accustomed to Metu today. I think that Metu is such a beautiful and wealthy place that it is a city on its own in Ankara and Metu is worth to deal with problems with which we can come accross in Metu, so as to see its beauty.

  1. Dear Sevilay
    I read your essay and i really liked it.I agree with you in most of your thoghts.When i read your writing,i understood you so much.Like you, i'm also happy to be at Metu.First of all,you said that Metu is a cosmopolitan university,so thanks to it we can have many friends.This is right.Metu offers us to come across many cultures thanks to its this opportunity.Apart from this,we can have also advantage of speaking in English with a native speaker whose mother tongue is English.Seconly,you said that Metu has has problems like transportation.This is also true.Transportation is really a big problem,because we don't have any ring at mornings and after 5.00p.m.So,we have trouble to arrive our lessons or our dormitories.Moreover,You mentioned Metu's education as so good.Yes,we have many good teachers who are very goot at their fields,however as you said,sometimes it can be really difficult to do our homeworks,presentations etc. on their time,because Metu has a very tense education really which can be tiring.But we also know that without them,maybe we can not develop ourselves as much as in our this position or situation.Yes,as a student we don't like homeworks altough we know that they arevery helpful.Finally,i liked your writing Sevilay.It is really good.See you later.
